Won’t keep the spaces

You’re welcome.
The paste from word thing in the wordpress editor sometimes can be fooled and some stuff that will mess with the formatting can slip through.
If you copy from Word, my suggestion is to first paste it into a plain text editor such as notepad or text edit and then copy and paste out of the plain text file.

Supposedly yuo can paste as plain text (is right next to the paste from Word box) but then I lost the Arial font. So this time (for a new post) I used the Paste from Word and it worked okay. Next time I’ll try what you said above–into Notepad first. Thanks again!

Notepad will remove all formatting including font tags. It will strip it all out, even bold and italics.
What you might want to look at is Windows Live Writer, which is an offline blog editor made by Microsoft and according to what I’ve heard, it will fix and convert Word code (when you paste from Word) so that it doesn’t mess up wordpress. Basically you compose your posts in it (or paste into it from Word) and then it actually publishes your posts bypassing the wordpress editor all together.
It’s free and actually quite well done. http://windowslivewriter.spaces.live.com/
